Fabulous Olympics - Gymnastics and Synchronized Swimming

Typhoon no.9 in Hong Kong is currently in force, so I have a chance to look at the Synchronized Swimming - Team Event Technical Routine, which is regarded as the ballet in water.
Apart from enjoying their beautiful movement, I am truly impressed by the participants' swimsuit.

There is a Chinese character "hua" which stands for China on the left and prunus mume flower (known as plum blossom, one of the national flower of China) throughout the swimsuit and hair accessories of the Chinese Team.
It truly represents the essence of China culture and spirit.
The bling bling crystal on top which costs more than US$10000 makes the look more stunning.

There are also lots of gorgeous outfit in synchronized swimming, gymnastics artistic and gymnastics rhythmic.
Gemma Mengual and Andrea Fuentes of Spain
Shawn Johnson of America,
the sweet gold and sliver medals winner
Olga Kapranova of Russia
Anna Bessonova of Ukraina, Athens Rhythmic Gymnastics bronze medalist
Greek team in gymnastics rhythmic all round

The Olympics will end soon on the coming Sunday.
Olympics is still olympics. We focus on sports and the outstanding performance of the athetics.
However, it wo
uld never be the effort of one person.
While we are prising the medal winners, maybe we should not forget their coachs and for sure,
the outfit designers.
